Greece is increasing its diesel subsidy to €0.15 per litre for the next two weeks, adding €0.05 in support as elevated fuel costs affect households and businesses. The measure is designed to run alongside existing retail pricing relief.
Refinery discounts will be combined with the subsidy, with the total reduction available at petrol stations expected to reach approximately €0.20 per litre. This includes adjustments that apply across both diesel and petrol pricing.
Helleniq Energy discount schedule through mid-October
Helleniq Energy will keep its discounts in place until 14 October. The company’s pricing cuts include unleaded petrol reduced by €0.0795 per litre and diesel reduced by €0.0405 per litre.
The government said it plans to review the support package every 15 days, enabling changes as international prices move. The short extension period is intended to provide immediate relief while preserving flexibility on spending if fuel prices stay high.
Heating oil support ahead of winter sales
Authorities are turning to heating oil as the winter sales season begins on 15 October. The initial retail price target is set below €1.75 per litre, with additional support expected to be announced before sales start.
The timing of the heating oil measures follows the diesel and petrol subsidy adjustments, with the next policy focus scheduled around the start of the winter season.
